Farewell Heartbeat


My team gave me a great send off today and amongst other things gave me this lovely poem. I will miss them all. It has been a pleasure working with such a dedicated bunch of people.


Our D’Arcy

Our D’Arcy, not the ballerina or that man from the period tale,
but our good humoured colleague about to set sail.

Our D’Arcy always full of cheer, ready with a kind word or a listening ear,
and well worn that ear has been, on occasion feeling the full force of the all female fundraising team.

Our D’Arcy not one to miss a photo opp,
Often with faithful friend Domino roped in as mascot.

Our D’Arcy with his full repertoire of anecdotes,
Who will keep us entertained now the time draws near for him to put on his coat.

Our D’Arcy a true team member he has been,
His empty chair will be a sore sight to be seen.

Today our ‘King of Hearts’ we lose,
Yet least we forget our D’Arcy in those zebra platform shoes.

With Best Wishes from your
Wessex Heartbeat Team
